Hello Everyone
Hi guys. Jackson remains stable. He continues to drop his oxygen saturation, mostly just when someone messes with him. Because he continues to do this Adam has still not held him. They think he is doing this because he was on steroids for a few days. The steroids are now getting out of his system, which is making it harder for him. They have increased his oxygen percentage on the ventilator from 30% to 50% and his breaths per minute from 30 to 40. He appears to be doing ok with these settings. They also say he might be withdrawing from the morphine, which they are starting to wean, which could be causing some problems. He was not tolerating the 15mls of food very well so he has been backed down to 10ml every 3 hours. He has also had his first bowel movement since surgery which is a very good thing. Because all of his intestines were manipulated there was a chance of having a bowel obstruction. Well I guess that's about all for now.
